EXPERIMENT It all started withe the book „Eat and Run” by Scott Jurek. Rich Roll added some more in his book „Finding Ultra”. They both described how the resignation of the meat had a positive effect on their mood, but primarily on athletic performance. They claimed that they feel lighter, can train harder and the […]
Be it a longrun or a running competition, it always brings to my mind a cornmeal or semolina porridge. It’s a quick and easy to digest breakfast, giving a kick of good energy. After such a warming meal I can jump in my running clothes and set off immediately. WHY CORNMEAL I made a cornmeal porridge one […]
I say goodbye to 2016 traditionally – with running. Yet again I participated in the Cracow Run New Year’s Eve Run. Besides the regular competition, every year there’s a competition for the best costume and runners’ imagination truly knows no limits there! SHORT REPORT 13th edition of the run gave me additional joy, beside the obvious competition, […]
Sickness is the worst thing that can happen to a runner – you wake up in the morning with a feeling of scratching in the throat or runny nose and you already know what’s coming – a break in training …. and yet it is only a small cold. Maybe you could run it through? Maybe […]
A favorite snack of runners and vegetarians – peanut butter. Available in different flavors, but my favourite is classic – 100% roasted peanuts. And the best thing is that you don’t have to overpay for ready-made butter with unhealthy additives – you can do it yourself in just minutes! WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT Peanut […]

Today I offer you a quick and simple recipe – a spanish tortilla, i.e. omelette with potatoes. In Spain it is supposed to be eaten cold… for me, an omelette must be hot! The tortilla is a great idea for a quick dinner or supper (half a serving). It is a balanced meal rich in carbohydrates, […]
Carbohydrates are very important for us – from them comes the energy needed by our muscles to function properly. It is particularly important for runners and other athletes – but how do we know when to eat? Some products give quick but a short boost of energy while others release it slowly and steadily, giving a feeling of satiety for […]
Pumpkin soup is a typical autumn soup made in thousand different ways. My favorite taste is a slightly spicy cream with ginger and coconut milk – it has a really unique flavour. It’s a magical soup as it disappears before it’s even ready ;-) RECIPE INGREDIENTS (4-5 servings): 1kg pumpkin 1 l vegetable broth (homemade or concentrated) 2 […]
Lasagna is one of my favorite cheat meals, i.e. dishes I serve myself as an exception from my regular diet or a planned meal before the major race. In such a case the large amount of calories (especially carbs) is most welcome. Spinach lasagna is as good a carbo-loading meal as a regenerative meal after […]
A moment ago we were hiding from the heat and cooled ourselves with whatever water we could find, and now the best piece of equipment for a training is… a warm blanket. I dread to think what’d it be when it starts snowing. How to run in winter? Should we run at all? RUN!!! It is said […]
Buckwheat with cottage cheese has that special something. This combination of flavors is really excellent – you need nothing more. Just put it on a plate … or try a little harder and make it a refined dish. For vegans I suggest a green pea puree – equally tasty. And how about preparing both versions at the same […]
